2022 Black Tern Red Wine

Winemakers Notes Black Tern 2022 – Bronze, International Wine Challenge 2026 This wine is deep ruby with a purple rim. Good oak and tertiary aromas initially of cedar wood and leather, followed by ripe dark fruits of cassis and dark cherry and a little red fruit brightness. Very reminiscent of right-bank Bordeaux. Big hit of fruit on the palate with a full mouthfeel. Fine but present tannins provide a good structure to this wine, and savoury charred wood notes are complimented by ripe dark fruit and sweet spice. This old-world style red wine is perfect with roast red meats, earthy mushroom-based dishes, and strong soft cheeses.
